"Avatar" is coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom, and the creators of the new land enthusiastically shared some thoughts about that to cast members gathered for a screening of the film at the theme park this week.

There's little in the way of actual new info in this video of the event, shared with us by BigFatPanda.com. Producer Jon Landau makes mention of the flying ride and the bioluminesence, but emphasizes the overall experience.

“The land itself is truly the attraction. It’s going to be interactive. It’s going to give people the opportunity to feel they are truly in another world,” he says.

“To me, Avatar's not coming here. Pandora is coming here," he says. "We’re going to give people an opportunity to go to Pandora. That’s what we found when people came out of the movie. ... They wanted to go back to Pandora."

Landau and Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde both mention the cooperative nature of the work between Disney and the movie makers.

“I like to build things. It’s all fine to talk … we’re going to do this, we’re going to do that. Blue sky, and pictures and meetings. I want to build stuff. That is what I’m here to do: Build things.”

The "Avatar" themed land is scheduled to open in 2017. There are signs -- construction walls, closure of Camp Minnie-Mickey and the impending relocation of "Festival of the Lion King" -- around the theme park.

“From here on out, which is an incredible slog, we are doing it," Rohde say. "We are going to make this happen. Which is very exciting, really intimidating, but really technically mindboggingly hard to do, but very exciting because we’re going to do it now."
